The purpose is to study the effect of ambient temperature in the Far North on meteosensitive patients with various degrees and clinical variants of arterial hypertension.
Material and methods. 250 people took part in the study — 142 men (56,8%) and 108 women (43,2%), permanently residing in the territory of KhMAO-UGRA. All patients had a confirmed diagnosis of Grade 1–3 arterial hypertension (AH). The average age is not younger than 18 and not older than 75 years. The average duration of hypertension was 15,7 (0,5) years (p = 0,9). Also, the duration of observation of all patients was taken into account according to control charts (CC). The sample ranged from 6 months to 3 years. The assessment of the meteorological conditions influence was carried out using test indices: A. Grigoriev’s test-index, D. Rudder’s kerosotropic test-index, and I. Kerdo’s vegetative test-index. The indicators of life quality were assessed using the MOS SF-36 questionnaire.
Results. The development of meteotropic reactions, including arterial pressure slip effect (APSE), in meteosensitive patients was 2 times more often observed in women with AH 2 and 3 degrees, on the days of the passage of cyclones and anticyclones.
Conclusion. The ambient temperature is a predictor of meteotropic reactions in meteosensitive patients with hypertension permanently living in the Far North. The CC method allows identifying the periods of APSE and developing a predictive model.
Key words: arterial hypertension, meteosensitivity, arterial pressure slip effect, quality of life.
